Fears Lest He VIII Not Survive to Return

to His Mississippi Home.
MACON, GA, Nov. 2.-There are CON
siderable doubts as to whether Jefferson
Davis will return to his isolated home al
Beauvoir, Miss, alive. His condition to
say the least is extremely precsrious
For several years he has been troubled
with serious affection Of the heart. The
excitement last week served only to ag-
gravate his ailment. Since last Saturday
he has been confined to his bed and ply
sicians have been in daily attendance.
His faithful wife has been ct his bedside
continually, snd every attention has been
accorded the sufferer. The wound
which he received in the Mexican
war is troubling him considerably and he
is scarcely able to walk. He is in very
enfeebled condition, and his family are
fearful that he will not recover from his
exhaustion. He has spoken but little
Since Saturday and has taken but little
nourishment. DR.. Mediation, the attend
ing physician, expresses great fears of
his inability TO leave the city on Thursday,
as was arranged before his visit. Mrs.
Davis watches him constantly and deals
out his medicine to him faithfully. II is
understood that his daughters, who are
guests Of the city of Macon, have been
summoned To their fathers side. The
end is expected at any moment.
DAVIS IN GOOD HEALTH.
MACON, GA, Nov. 2.-The reports that
Mr.. Jefferson D2vis is in precsrious
condition are not correct. His health is
better than it has been at any time since
he left Beauvoir. Last night he received
q number of friends and conversed with
them until late hour. This morning he
Is in fine spirits and in better health than

The Latest Quotations In al Lead
ing Lines Of Trade.
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1887-04-20

of the leading mugwump papers will be
found warmly supporting President
Cleveland for reelection. Where they
would be found if the President should
fail of a denomination it is not so easy
to predict. But in any event, the re-
publican party should select its national
ticket regardless of the wishes of those
who have arrayed themselves in bitter
hostility to its most vital principles and
policies. The Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette says: "The mugwump papers
are as positively, if not as Indignantly,
hostile to Sherman as to Blaine. This is
true, we believe, of the Herald, Times,
Post and Harper's Weekly of New
York, and the suggestions they make
of republican candidates are preposter-
Gus. AS for our part, we want candi-
dates toward whom the mugwump
gang will be irreconcilable. The gang
hostility is an indispensable stamp of
sound and saving republicanism."

dependence would soon be masters of
the situation. Then there would be no
alternative for England than to submit,
or to suppress the rebellion by force.
The friends of home-rule say there are
but two courses open-either the con-
cession of the demand or rule by CO.
ercion. The latter remedy merely ag-
gravates the evils of the situation, and
peace and justice can be restored
to Ireland only by the home-rule plan,
accompanied by some measure for the
settlement of the land question. The
Irish question is many-sided and any
plan for its settlement must be some-
what in the nature of an experiment,
but it is evident that the harsh coercion
policy of the present government in
England will only exasperate the Irish
people without accomplishing any good
results.
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1887-04-20
England and Ireland.

The Irish question has reached
another grave crisis, and the outcome
is matter of more than national in
terest. The great meetings held in
England to protest against the coercion
bill show that at least large minority of
the English people are in favor of
treating Ireland with reasonable
measure of justice and favor the grant
ing of home-rule to the unhappy island
upon some fair terms. 1t is not an
easy matter to devise means which will
satisfy the demand for home-rule, pre-
serve the empire from ACKNOWLEDGMENT
and satisfy British public sentiment.
There would probably be less difficulty
in carrying such measure through
parliament but for the fear that the
Irish people would not rest content
with home-rule. Its opponents say
that the establishment of an Irish par
lament would be followed by a de-
mand for entire separation from the
empire, and the advocates of Irish in

Where They will Stand.

The Rutland Herald is anxious to
know where the New York Times,
New York Euening Post, Horper'S
Weekly, Springfield Republican and Bos-
ton Transcript will stand in the presi-
dental campaign next year. Would
these mugwump papers support Sena-
tor Sherman, Senator Hawley, Senator
Allison, Senator Hoar, or any other
strong party man like either of them?
The Herald omits the Boston Herald
from the list because it knows that
paper will not support the best repub-
lican in the country.
We cannot surmise how it would be
with the Boston Transcript, but we
think there is no doubt about the posi-
ton of the other journals named in the
event of President Cleveland's renom-
nation. The Springfield Republican has
intimated several times that if Mr..
Cleveland is renominated he deserves
to be reelected, though it has been
more cautious than some of the other
mugwump papers in committing itself
to definite policy on the question. In
recent interview, George Jones, pro-
prietor of the New York Times,
strongly commended the course of the
President, and predicted that if he
should be renominated he would have
the support of the Independents and be
reelected. The leading editorial writer
of Hdrper's Weekly now is John Foord,
a pronounced free-trader and strong
supporter of Cleveland. The famous
political caricaturist, Thomas Mast,
who, it is said, will resume his work for
Harper's Weekly, called on the Presi-
dent recently as he passed through
Washington. To the inevitable inter-
viewer Mr.. Mast remarked: "My own
opinion is that Cleveland will be renom-
mated, and that he will be triumph
antly reelected. One thing is certain,
l will do all / can for him. / will sup
port him vigorously" The EUening
Post is now much more democratic
journal than anything else, and there is
not much doubt that it will favor a
second term for Cleveland. All of the
papers named are out-and-out advo-
Gates of free-trade, and would hardly be
able to support any republican candi-
date for president who is as strong a
protectionist as Mr.. Blaine or Senator
Sherman without great sacrifice of
principle or consistency. 1t is as GER
tain as anything can be that every one
